Accenda's Unique Features

Hands-Free Voice --or-- Hand-Held Push-Button Operation

Hands-Free Channel Surfing --- Without Lifting a Finger

Using technology so advanced that it has been used on interplanetary space probes, the Accenda Remote Control uses the sound of your voice to control your TV, VCR, Cable Box, Satellite — and even your home theater! Accenda converts your spoken words into infrared remote control signals using proven, accurate, voice recognition technology.

Accenda can recognize up to 50 commands and is so automated it can perform even complex operations (such as turning on your TV and VCR, turning your television to channel 3 and telling your VCR to begin playing a tape) from a single spoken command!

You can use whatever commands you want. For example, you can have Accenda turn your TV to CNN with whatever spoken command you want: Channel Eight, CNN, Larry King, or News.

Accenda can even store a different set of commands for each family member!

Hold Accenda in Your Hand

Finding the right button on Accenda couldn't be easier. The lettering on the sculpted, ergonomically designed keys is large and bold, and the keys are backlit. For even greater ease, each set of buttons has a distinctive shape making it extraordinarily easy to find buttons just by feel.

You never even have to look at the buttons. The unique voice response tells you what button you pressed, eliminating guess work and making Accenda. easier and faster to learn to use than other universal remote controls.

Volume and channel buttons are located on the sides of the remote control so you never have to move your hand to channel surf or adjust the volume. Two sets of buttons make Accenda perfect for left and right-handed use.

Even complex operations can be performed with a single button press. And Accenda's Smart Source feature means you never have to reach for the television, VCR, cable or satellite buttons... no more hitting the wrong button!

EZ-Find "Sculpted" Buttons Are Large and Backlit

Accenda's large keys have high-contrast large-sized lettering so they are easy to see, even in a dark room. The backlit keys light whenever a button is pressed. You can even control how long they stay lit after you release the button. The selected "source" key (TV, VCR, etc.) flashes whenever a button is pressed to indicate which device is being controlled.

Smart Source Automatically Selects the Right Source

Smart Source is a new feature that makes using Accenda simpler than any other remote control by eliminating the traditional need to push the TV, Cable/Satellite, VCR, DVD, Audio or Aux button every time you want to change what you are doing. Smart Source puts you in complete control. With Smart Source, you decide which entertainment device you wish to use for common functions. From then on, you may never need to press the TV, Cable, VCR, etc. buttons again!

How many times have you changed your television channel when you meant to control your cable box? With Accenda, this will never need to happen again.

Voice prompts talk you through set-up & operation

Accenda’s unique voice response tells you what button you have just pressed. This unique voice response system makes learning to use your remote control far more easy than conventional remote controls, even if you have difficulty seeing the buttons.

When setting up Accenda for voice operation, friendly voice prompts guide you through every step.

Memo recorder — no more fumbling for pen and paper!

With so many talk shows and commercials giving you “800" numbers and web site addresses, trying to memorize the number or fumbling for a pen and paper can be a challenge. Accenda’s voice recorder eliminates this challenge by recording a “voice memo” of up to 9 seconds.

Multiple Operations From a Single Instruction

When handheld, Accenda offers a convenient way to quickly go to your favorite channels by “assigning” them to the four Favorite Channel buttons, or to up to fifty Voice Instructions.

Accenda takes the flexibility and power of operation to another level by letting you program a single instruction to step through a series of button sequences each time you speak the instruction. For example, a multi-string macro can let you surf through three favorite channels with just a single voice instruction or button push.

Accenda's Channel Scan gives you hands free channel surfing. Just sit back and let Accenda surf the channels for you!

Charging cradle Gives Accenda a Home

Accenda includes a special Charger Cradle that allows you to safely store Accenda while you recharge the batteries. The Charger Cradle is also designed to permit you to operate Accenda completely "hands free" while it is in the Charger Cradle.

Comprehensive Code Library

Accenda features the acclaimed Innotech Systems infrared code library -- used by some of the world's leading remote control suppliers -- to ensure that Accenda will control YOUR entertainment system. Accenda includes nearly 1,000 remote control codes.

Retains Set-up Even Without Batteries

A state-of-the-art "non-volatile memory" stores your set-up, including device codes, favorite channels, and voice commands, even if the batteries are removed.

Convenient Flip-Down Keypad

Less-frequently used buttons are located inside the flip-down keypad, reducing button clutter and helping you avoid pressing the wrong button. Among the buttons inside the keypad are unique “Lock” and “Sound” buttons.

The unique Accenda “Lock” button “locks-out” menu and guide buttons that require on-screen display. By locking out these buttons, it becomes much more difficult to accidently change your television, cable, or DSS settings.
